The experts from Beast King Palace and Sword King Sect were all dumbfounded, as Ling Xiao's strength had exceeded their expectations.
When Ying Wu Ya got up from the ground, he was completely stupefied.
Back in Plague Valley, Ling Xiao was just an Outer Disciple of Moon Hua Sect, far inferior to him in strength.
Now, they were both Core Disciples, yet he had lost so decisively.
He even doubted whether he could have lasted till the ninth move if Ling Xiao had been going all out from the start.
Maybe he would have lost in the fifth or sixth move.
Seeing Ling Xiao's victory, Jian Wuji finally opened his eyes once again, murmuring to himself, "I truly did not expect to encounter such talent in the tri-sect competition, defeating a Half-step Celestial with only thirty percent strength using the Pinnacle of the Transcendent Realm Ninth Layer Cultivation Level!"
What defines a prodigy, in Jian Wuji's mind, is only the Holy Son.
